New competencies for politics, government and participation
Ismael Peña-López
Q&A
Carolina Velasco: one of the problems with cyberactivism is creating buzz around some concepts or information or pieces of news that are not fully understood by who’s endorsing them. A: Agreed. Indeed, the fact is that there’s people that are highly technologically literate and master several tools, but lack other dimensions of digital literacy such as informational literacy or e-awareness, for instance, and have the ability to endorse but without a critical point of view.

Y hubiera puesto otros ejemplos, entre los que estaría, sin duda, el de http://www.rap2spain.com. [...]
